Are you telling me that the original print would have a sentence where the
first few words are in solid caps and the rest of the sentence is
not? Example below.
THIS IS A SAMple sentence.
Isn't this a scanning error?

Bud,
Taking out the spaces is fine. Spaces in between letters is an OCR error and not a factor of the original print.

Hi, I leave the caps the way they are also except I take out the spaces between letters which so often appear so it reads better. Hope that's ok.
